Didn't See It Coming

Chapter Nine

Chapter Nine: No Bed and No sleep make Ari go Crazy.

--------------------------------

Two cups of coffee.

A glass of ice water to the face.

Three Red bulls.

Two cans of Monster.

I'm still tired, turns out call of duty at three am is a bad idea, Duncan,  Jordyn and I are learning that the hard way.

To be honest it's mostly Duncan's fault for bragging about how good he is,  I of course disagreed and then boom it was on.

Jordyn fell asleep in the middle of mathematics resulting in the professor kicking her out, which she didn't understand because in her dream she was focused.

Duncan is currently struggling to stay awake and so am I, my eyes drooped constantly the signal to pinch myself is seeing Tall Fishman from Reaction time talk to me.

The fact that we're discussing pride and prejudice isn't helping keep me awake,  not that the novel is bad, heck it's amazing,  but I've read it more times than I can count.

"Would you like to share your thoughts on Darcy,  Arianna? " I snapped to the professor, and blinked  rapidly,
"Yes, Darcy in my opinion is what every woman of that's time would wish for and so pushes onto the stereotype that women need men whilst they do not." She nodded,
"And on the topic of love?" I sat straighter,
"Love is an idea, the  idea of love excites so it is often taken seriously whilst love itself is a term we use to identify someone as worthy of ourselves." The Professor smiled,
"Fair enough,  would anyone like to add to that?"
"Love isn't an idea, it's just portrayed poorly, people have taken it for granted."

Duncan's voice rang and I look back to see that he was asleep whilst talking.

Impressive.

The Professor lectured on until it was over, I packed up ready to sleep, Duncan was walking my way,
"Are we going to yours?" I nodded picking up Blue and walking with him, Jordyn stood outside the door.

At this point we were the university  goths with Duncan in black shirts and jeans with his leather jacket his hair in his eyes with the blue tips, Jordyn in a black skater skirt black stockings and a white long sleeve, her hair cropped at the shoulder and a lip, nose, eyebrow and six ear piercings and finally me in my black ripped jeans,black shirt and leather jacket, my hair now it's natural blonde with washed out purple half way down,  of course my nose piercing and ears.

We were the goth squad.

It's been that way since we started hanging out two weeks ago.
First it was random coffee and now it's binge watching The Flash and TeenWolf then Playing Call Of Duty till we fell asleep with our controllers in our hands.

Of course I made time for Zach,  we met up and had sleepovers alot,  but he's occupied like me.

Jordyn pulled out her switch blade and started carving into a nearby wall that we leaned against waiting for the students to clear out.

Jordyn constantly has a
dagger in her hand carving something.

Duncan tried to keep me awake by pointing out all the flat asses and how many girls he could use as ironing boards.

He seemed to enjoy my..... Arianna-ness?

Which consisted if a chuckle and then me pointing out people that looked like raccoons.

I know what your thinking.

I'm dope.

"Okay so I have tickets to pussy fest this weekend." Jordyn said and I nod,
"Yeah I guess." Duncan says as we walk to my place, ready for sleep, the dark circles under my eyes made me look like Liv from iZombie,  not that I minded but fighting sleep is hard esspesially in my circumstances,  on scholarship like Jordyn and Duncan.

When I opened the door my laptop was already on the counter along with Duncan and Jordyns and we stumbled up the stairs to my room.

I fell onto my bed and boom out like a light.

Hours later I woke up feeling refreshed,  Jordyn was still sleeping on my bed and Duncan on the floor, I stretched and tried to go back to sleep.

I slipped on my glasses staring at the ceiling.

"Gwen, dude I'm hungry." I looked down at Duncan and nod,
"Me too, I want Nandos."

I sigh and sit up, Jordyn shot up,  her eyes still closed.
"Someone said Nandos, get me chicken." She fell back down and I pressed my lips together not to laugh at her.

Duncan stood up holding out his hand,
"I'm buying. " I smirk and stand then walk out of my room leaving Jordyn.

He drove to the nearest Nandos and we ordered, sitting down at a table close to a window.

I looked out tge window, the breeze against my skin.

I leaned back and sipped on my ice tea.

"So have you solved your sec problem?" I look at Duncan blankly,
"Yeah sure, let's assume I've gone around asking people to fuck me." He smirked,
"No need to be feisty." I huffed taking my hair out of the ponytail I'd stuffed it in,
"Your hair is really long. " I nod,
"Yeah, it's freaky,  I keep cutting but it grows back." He nodded,staying quiet.

Strange,  he hasn't insulted me... Why?

"What's wrong?" I ask sitting up straight,
"Nothing." I raise an eyebrow,
"You sure?" He hesitated before nodding,
"Okay."
"I am."
"I'm not saying you aren't, jeez." He huffed,
"Cock biter." I scowl,
"Watch put I just might bite off your cock." I snap my teeth at him and he smirks.
